Dee Pipik lived with cancer for over forty years, giving her insight into not only surviving the disease - but thriving despite it.
The process, she said, begins with “a small but meaningful step, perhaps just three forkfuls of spaghetti”…and is told through a series of podcasts she recorded with her sister-in-law.
